Of course they won it, Watson cheated and would head this list of worst Brownlow medallists if he still had one. It was clearly his best season in 2012, drug assisted.


Yeah, nah.

2 AA, 3 B&Fs, 1 AFLPA Best AFL Captain. Nowhere near this list. In a team that hardly played finals and didnt win one, if he was that good id expect more B&F's

Yeah, nah.

2 Brownlows, 1 AFLPA MVP, 4 AA, 5 B&F. As individually decorated as you can get.
As i said, no other competent vote taking players in his team, makes it alot easier to win Brownlows, the recipie for a Brownlow medallist is best player in a team that is middle of the road. He wouldnt have won a Brownlow had he been in Geelong, Hawthorns or Richmonds teams in their succesful eras

Does winning two of them make it a bit harder to make a case for him though? I think it does.


You’d have to be pretty lucky to be gifted 2 Brownlows
And by the biggest margin ever and highest tally ever


1 was lucky.


I assume you mean the one where he polled more votes than anyone ever in history?

That’s because they are broken after carrying Carlton on them for the past decade

The night bit in Geelong sorta scares me away from that.

I went:
Cameron 6 goals & 6 marks
Stengle & Neale 2 goals each
Bowes and Martin a goal each
5 goals scored in each quarter

Speaking of GLR's, Nat Fyfe makes his return this week. No doubt he'll be sub but it's bloody good to see him back, imagine how good he could've been if his body held up, goes down in my favourite top something.

his story about stopping at an outback petrol station was a cracker.
